The role of business entities in achieving sustainable development goals has been studied in terms of environmental performance. However, the integration of the model by involving an environmental strategy and green innovation is still rare. The purpose of this study is to examine and explain the role of environmental strategy and green innovation in building SMEs’ environmental performance. This study uses a survey method on 177 managers and assistant managers of export SMEs who are concerned with efforts to save the environment. The results showed that environmental strategy had a significant effect on green innovation in realizing environmental performance.

“…Based on the research of related scholars, this paper uses five items to measure exploratory learning and four items to measure exploitative learning 87,88 . Ambidextrous learning, which refers to the complete construction of exploratory learning and exploitative learning, has been prominently embodied in technological innovation research 89 . Ambidextrous learning is an important method for innovation agents to realize and make use of technological innovation, and exploratory learning and exploitative learning can promote the technological skills of innovation agents 90 .…”

BACKGROUND Rural China is characterized as having different rates of economic growth. The resource and socioeconomic statuses of farm households greatly affect their productivity and the activities they engage in. The main objective in this study was to explore the mechanisms concerning how socioeconomic status of kiwifruit growers affects their adoption of biological control technology (BCT). To achieve this objective, field survey data from 650 kiwifruit farmers in specific kiwifruit growing areas of Shaanxi and Sichuan provinces in China were investigated. The binary probit model and Bootstrap dual mediated utility models served to assess socioeconomic status's effect on farmers' BCT adoption. RESULTS This study discovered a significant positive correlation between socioeconomic status and the adoption rate of biological control technology. Farmers of various socioeconomic status have significant differences in the rate of BCT adoption. This study's empirical analysis found that exploratory learning and exploitative learning under dual learning had a significant mediating effect on farmers' socioeconomic status when it came to BCT acceptance. CONCLUSION Results show that the rate of BCT adoption is related to farmers' socioeconomic status and dual learning mode, which provides new insights for understanding how farmers implement new technology. This study will help agricultural extension departments increase their awareness of BCT adoption by farmers, and the development of diverse learning approaches in response to differences in socioeconomic status of farmers may significantly increase their likelihood to implement BCT. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Entering the promotion catalogue is the basis for China’s new energy vehicle (NEV) enterprises to obtain promotion subsidies. Using a multistage difference-in-differences (DID) model with a sample of listed NEV enterprises in China from 2008 to 2017, this paper empirically analyzes the impact of entering the promotion catalogue on the innovation of NEV enterprises. The results indicate that entering the promotion catalogue can significantly promote innovation of NEV enterprises from the perspective of radical innovation, incremental innovation, and external technology introduction of NEV enterprises. In the mediation mechanism examination, this study finds that entering the promotion catalogue promotes innovation in NEV enterprises by increasing corporate profits and easing financing constraints. Based on the conclusions above, this paper recommends to strengthen core technology breakthrough of NEVs, cultivate market demand of NEVs industry, and improve subsidy supervision system of NEVs.
